But it would depend on which Arduino. An Arduino with onboard USB serial, it would be better to plug the USB cable into the XO, and access the /dev/ttyACM0 device that appears, and have the Arduino send the data to the XO over the serial connection. An Arduino without onboard USB serial, one might either add a USB to serial converter and do the above (at some expense), or have the Arduino transmit an audio frequency related to the sensor input ... and then hook that into the microphone input. Still, I think it is a bit early to speculate given we know nothing yet of the actual sensor to Arduino interface. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

Hey, this does look like a cool sensor for us to add. The sensor likely will expect 3-5V of power like the Arduino provides (so, USB power for us). Depending on how they've set it up, there might be some logic beyond just the sensor input. If you are using an Arduino, you can add a wire communicating back to the Measure activity through the microphone input. -- Nick On Jul 19, 2011 8:08 PM, "Sameer Verma" wrote: > http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1342192419/pulse-sensor-an-open-source-heart-rate-sensor-that > > Minus the Arduino, can this plug into the audio/mic port? > > Sameer > ___ > Health mailing list > hea...@lists.laptop.org > http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/health ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

All the deployments have XOs, but may not have an Arduino. If we can get something that plugs into the audio mic port and USB port (power) then this would be very cool. Tom Boonsiri was working on something similar, but I never got to see it or plans on how to make it... http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/health/2008-April/75.html cheers, Sameer > > On Jul 19, 2011 8:08 PM, "Sameer Verma" wrote: >> >> http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1342192419/pulse-sensor-an-open-source-heart-rate-sensor-that >> >> Minus the Arduino, can this plug into the audio/mic port? >> >> Sameer >> ___ >> Health mailing list >> hea...@lists.laptop.org >> http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/health ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

Also the XO itself can run the processing IDE of Arduino and also you can plug an Arduino board to it w/o problem.
